However, being denied the opportunity to vote by less than legal means is something else all together.

And if you have say 10000 illegal votes being counted in an area that has only 4000 people registered, THOSE 4000 registered voters just had THEIR votes in effect nullified...
Which is why i agree, voter fraud is much more worse than suppression.

I know 4 people who, for at least 8 years each, been RESENDING in certified copies of their father (x2) mother (x1) wife (x1) death certificate EACH of the past years, into the voting registration office, to GET THEIR family members removed.. After 2-3 mo, the person's removed. BUT come Oct 1, their names are BACK ON THE REGISTRATION list..

But that is not what it is today. What "voter suppression" has morphed into is the idea we should avoid anything that it would hinder a total idiot, moron, or Democrat Party supporter to have to put forth any effort what so ever in exercising their right to rubber stamp the agenda of those who promise them something for nothing.

And its the same tactic the left uses to get people to agree that requiring any form of voter id is 'suppression'. HELL its the same reason they used to prevent iirc Wyoming back in 14, from making it a requirement you prove you are a US citizen to register to vote.. Cause they said it 'would suppress' the vote of non-citizens.
YET NON-citizens can't vote by law anyway.. SO HOW THE HELL Is their vote being suppressed..

Excuse me?? How is requiring someone
A) Prove they are who they say they are and
B) Requiring them to prove they are a US citizen, 'treating them like the enemy??
